9th A C Hospital
City PointVa (Virginia) (City Point, Virginia)   Jan 24th / 65 Mrs Brown (Brown (Mrs.))

Since I last
wrote, the body of your husband
has been embalmed, so that it
could be sent to his home
or elsewhere in case of application
I suppose Government would
pay the expenses to Washington (Washington, District of Columbia) .
from there, the expenses would
have to be paid.

His features remain about
the same as they were before
death. His body is dead,
but his soul is alive in
Christ Jesus.

Yours with respect Jerome Walker (Walker, Jerome) U S San Com (United States Sanitary Commission)
